Remarks

A student who doesn't want any distractions in studies can easily survive in this college. But for a student, who is focused on sports and other extra curricular activities , is hard to strive. College provides all the important questions , materials and other means to supports to the students.

Course Curriculum Overview

You will be trained with number of tests and exams. The exams will be given more importance. If we fail in exams, we want to take retest untill we pass. This method helps in university exams as there the portions will be studied before itself.

Placement Experience

College does not take steps towards intership but insists students to undergo intership and implant training at various industries and companies. They focus on 100% placement on All clear candidates.

College Events

2.5

Pongal celebration, diwali celebration, independence day, republic day, sports day, symposiums, college fest, culturals. These were the events that were celebrated in our college. All the students can participate in the events prescribed in the celebration.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fees structure is feasible. They provide lunch for all the students in the college. For that they collect ?10000. The collect fees only slight about the fees prescribed by Anna University. Eg: for me fees prescribed by Anna University is ?40000. Fees collected by college including charges for lunch is ?70000.

Fees and Financial Aid

Scholarship is given to students who were eligible to avail all the scholarship defined by Anna University. Also college supports students to avail Educational loans from the students. Following are some of the scholarships given. First graduation, scholarship based on caste, sports quota, ex-servicemen quota etc

Campus Life

2.5

Laboratories were maintained excellantly. The lab assistants take care of their respective labs. Coming to sports, sports is not that much encouraged in our college compared with studies. Priority is only given to studies. One who clears all the can participate in sports, and other extracurricular activities.

Alumni/Alumna

The alumi network is not maintained well. They does not give much importance to that. Only during placement day function, some clips of seniors describing about the positives of our college will be played on the led screen.

Admission

Anna University counselling held at guindy campus. Counselling is based on engineering cutoff marks scored in 12th standard. We must take DD in favour of Anna University for a amount of 5000/- as counselling charges. This amount will be reduced from the college fees if we admitted in the selected college.

Faculty

Faculties were ready to spare their time for the welfare of the students and were ready to clear the doubts or other stuff at any time. They take each and every chapter seriously with real time examples.

A Good Learning Experience with Opportunities for Growth

Likes

Good campus infrastructure with decent classrooms and facilities.
Friendly faculty members and supportive classmates.
Good opportunities to participate in events, activities and improve technical skills.

Dislikes

Placement training and career guidance could be improved.

Placement Experience:

The college provides placement opportunities through its placement cell, with students generally preparing for recruitment during their pre-final and final years. Various companies offer opportunities in IT, software development, business and other fields. The placement support helps students improve their communication, technical and interview skills. However, more reputed companies and higher-paying opportunities could improve the placement experience. My goal after completing the degree is to secure a good job, gain industry experience and continue developing my technical skills.

From the very entry into your third year, you will be eligible to most of the placements. The training provided is very exquisite and some of the trainings start as early as 1st year. 2026 highest package was 55LPA. Many companies like from product companies like Microsoft, Capgemini to service based companies like TCS, INFOSYS etc.. visit our campus for regular placements. About 98% of people placed as far as I have heard.

Find your right path from someone's journey experience

I had applied to three colleges in Vellore the first preference is VIT Vellore institute of technology, and the next Thanthai Periyar Government College Of Engineering and lastly Kingston Engineering College which is nearer to my home. I am not able to join VIT because the course fees are too high for 4 years nearly 3.5 lakhs per year which is not affordable to my parents, And the reason the next college is seats are filled for BE Electronics and communication engineering which I preferred. so finally I joined Kingston engineering college. I availed OBC quota for my admission to Kingston Engineering College. The Admission criteria for B.E ECE is one must complete HSC or 12 the grade in any state of India with a minimum of 65% in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and age should be above 18 years. The admission process is either through the Management quota or through Government quota, I jones through the government quota and the procedure for doing this he/she must apply to Anna University through TNEA....Read More
